“…Work on vertical growth characteristics has made it possible to determine the genetic gain produced by these recombinations when crossed with the Deli tester [13,14]. However, the bunch and oil yield characteristics of hybrid progenies from these recombinations crossed with the Deli tester remain undetermined to our knowledge.…”

The introduction of Yocoboué-origin material into Group B of the reciprocal recurrent selection (RRS) scheme in Côte d'Ivoire aimed to enhance extraction rates of La Mé material and augment genetic diversity within the group. In this study, 1120 trees from 13 progenies and 3 controls, from the first and second selection cycles, were evaluated for bunch and oil yields in a balanced square lattice design (BSLD) with 4 x 4 and 5 replications. Results indicated that twelve progenies exhibited significantly higher bunch yields, ranging from 23 to 25 t/ha/year, compared to the three controls. Remarkably, industrial oil extraction rates reached up to 27%, resulting in an impressive oil yield capacity of 6.90 t/ha/year. Noteworthy progenitors, including LM13878P, LM13015T, and LM13832T, played a key role in achieving these performances and displayed favorable crossing values with Deli testers. These findings underscore the potential for creating high-performance hybrid seeds and advancing genetic improvement in oil palm. The diverse choices presented by these performances hold promise for the continued enhancement of oil palm cultivation.

“…Typically, out ows go from wealthier economies to developing countries, causing in ow remittances since GDP of the sending economies is usually large (Naufal & Genc, 2017). However, the negative e ects of out ow remittances raise the need to limit them (Konan & Fofana N'Zué, 2022).…”

Relevance. The outflow of funds from the Russian economy, including remittances, can have a significant impact on the country's economic development. The influence of digital technologies and the heterogeneity of Russian regions further complicate the study of factors affecting remittance outflows. This study aims to address this research gap by examining the spatial effects of remittance outflows from Russia at the regional level within the context of digital transformation. Research Objective. The primary objective of this paper is to investigate whether spatial effects exist in the outflow of remittances from Russia at the regional level and how digitalization affects this phenomenon. By exploring spatial autocorrelation and fitting spatial models, we aim to understand the mutual influence and interdependence of regions in cross-border remittances. Data and Methods. The study utilizes open annual data from the Bank of Russia on cross-border remittances and data from the Federal State Statistics Service of the Russian Federation. The research methodology includes spatial autocorrelation estimation and the application of spatial models. Results. Our findings indicate that the digitalization of business transactions leads to a decline in cross-border remittances that do not involve payment systems. This finding primarily relates to the relatively low share of non-resident remittances within formal remittances. The results underscore the importance of considering spatial differentiation among regions in terms of remittance volume when formulating regional policies. Furthermore, the study reveals a shifting trend towards the emergence of major centers for outgoing transfers in the Far Eastern part of Russia and an increase in remittance volumes from border regions in the European part of Russia. Conclusions. The policy implications of this study highlight the need to encourage the participation of the population's savings in the domestic economy. This can be achieved through measures aimed at facilitating internal investment and financial inclusion.

“…Remittance outflows began to become important when they were discovered to be influencing the macroeconomic variables of the sending countries (Alkhathlan, 2013; Konan & Zué, 2020; Naufal & Genc, 2018; Termos et al, 2013). From the perspective of the sending country, the researchers attempted to investigate the variables that stimulate migrant remittance action (Naufal & Vargas-Silva, 2009; OECD, 2018; Ruiz & Vargas-silva, 2009; Vargas & Huang, 2006).…”

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a popular destination for migrant workers worldwide, not just from Asia. Along with expanding the UAE’s economic activities, the amount of remittance outflows has increased dramatically, making it the second-largest remitting country, just behind the United States. This study looks into the important demographic factors that influence migrant remittance behavior in the Emirates. The examinations revealed that age, race, marital status, and a number of dependents are the most important factors influencing remittance behavior, while gender is found to be insignificant, proving the popular premise of female altruism to be incorrect. The findings are expected to assist policymakers in the government in devising ways and means to reduce remittance outflows as they have vital implications for some key macro-economic variables such as inflation and exchange rate as well as financial service providers in the UAE, in orchestrating a suitable promotional strategy to target suitable cohorts.
